Paris has blossoms! 2 years ago

I read this on Google..
WINTER BLOOMS: The modeling and observational evidence on climate change is increasingly conclusive, including blossoms in Paris’s Luxembourg Garden in January.
And this : If you like flowers – and Versailles gardens are amazing. I suggest late April – between Easter and May Day. This way you avoid most tourists, but the weather is likely to be better. Early April can still be quite chilly. Get a baguette, a hunk of cheese, and a bottle of wine for a fab picnic in Versaillles gardens – you can avoid the ‘big house’ all together of you’ve already been
This too :I’ve experienced very raw weather - and precious few blossoms - in Paris in early April. May offers more warmth and flowers.

But Sistah...

Do you like flowers??

I guess I should have asked that first.. I mean I know my cousin HATES roses with a passion which makes her less desirable in MY Book as roses rule my life… I LOOOOOOOVE my roses!

OH My.... **sad face**

We have boring flowers at our funerals.. daisies, lillies and dutch iris, although I guess my Mum did have yellow roses which is why I planted my first rose.. opps ruined that argument didn’t I?!

Well Sistah my mission in life is to remove the “funeral” rememberance of roses and give you a better way to associate them.

Although having said that it’s illegal to send roses overseas, a crazy jealous wife in MI tried to send me some once, thinking I was having an affair with her husband, when he sent her roses for their wedding anniversary she in turn sent them to me!!! Customs was furious and was going to charge me $200 to have them “Made safe to keep” and I rang them and said “Now why exactly would I want to keep HER Anniversary roses!”

Some women are so threatened by the internet!

She doesnt like...

Sorry I got off track and forgot to answer your question…

She doesn’t like roses because they are “too girly” she is TOO tomboyish!!
Her plants of choice are succulents.. and they’re full of pricks, so she can’t use the thorns as an excuse!!!

I love to cut mine and bring them in and have petals falling all over the place and the overwhelming scent wafting through the house is just heavenly to me!!
